Chapter 59 Aliens or Virtual Characters
"Yes...,..." Yi Xuan said twice, not knowing how to ask. He felt that this matter had something to do with him, but he felt unbelievable in his heart. Could such a huge game background be changed because of his lie?
"But that happened, and if I guessed correctly, it was up to you.
"But I was just talking nonsense at the beginning. Could it be a coincidence that you said this? It happened that the background setting of this game was the same as I made up, or the background information was actually printed in my mind by the system. I thought it was nonsense, but in fact it was talking about the content compiled by the system for me?"
Zhao Beifeng shook his head, "Do you think you believe what you said? You can only say such a coincidence unless you predict it. Besides, you don't know which of the things that the system imprints in your mind clearly?"
Yi Xuan recalled that it was indeed as Zhao Beifeng said. Although the system gave him a mission identity background, he had never been confused and thought that he was really that kind of person. Therefore, what the system imprinted in his mind was just the influence of the formation of reading or learning, and he could tell: "If this is the case, this is really strange."
"I was also very strange at the beginning, but after you told your story, I felt that I had found the truth of the matter, and I also found the reason why we entered this game." Zhao Beifeng sniffed a sip of wine and said slowly.
"Ah, then tell me quickly, don't keep it in hiding." Yi Xuan was so anxious that he was like a cat scratching, but Zhao Beifeng was slowly.
"What are you anxious about? I finally had a real person to speak, of course I have to say it slowly." Zhao Beifeng saw that he had achieved the effect he wanted, and finally said: "Actually, we came to this game to promote the progress of the plot of this game."
In a word, Yi Xuan felt his mind suddenly enlightened. Many things that he couldn't understand before seemed to become reasonable immediately.
"So--when I kill a character, this task is no longer refreshed."
"That's right." Zhao Beifeng said: "Because in the plot, he has been killed by you, which is a completely different concept from being killed by players. Because in the game plot, strictly speaking, there is no creature like a player."
"But." Yi Xuan still felt something was wrong, "Players do exist. They account for a very large proportion in this world."
"Haha." Zhao Beifeng naturally understood that he could not turn the corner for a moment, and explained with an example: "You must have played World of Warcraft before. In World of Warcraft, although the leader of each copy was killed by the player, in fact, there was nothing that the player had to do in the plot. The Lich King died under the sword of Fordin, Illidan died at the hands of Mavie, and the Death Wing was killed by Thrall with the soul of the dragon, and there was no relationship with the player inside and outside. Therefore, no matter how many times the leader the player killed, they did not really die until they were given a fatal blow by those heroes."
Yi Xuan nodded while listening, but when he heard the last sentence, he still felt something was wrong: "But in World of Warcraft, after those heroes killed the leader, those leaders would continue to refresh, and they did not really die."
"I said why you suddenly became so arduous. I'm just giving you an example. Yes, World of Warcraft is like that, but this game is not World of Warcraft. This game is obviously much more complicated than World of Warcraft. They let us enter the game because they are attracted by each of us's different personalities. Because we have souls and can think, we do things in different situations. It is precisely because of the existence of us that the plot development of this game world is unpredictable. I believe this is their biggest selling point."
"You mean, we came in this game just to promote the development of the game plot?" Yi Xuan was a little unacceptable to this idea for a moment. After entering the game hall and understanding the operation of the game hall, Yi Xuan always felt that he and the players in the game hall were very special, or they could be said to be very lucky. Although he was exhausted, Yi Xuan always felt that he was about to give great responsibilities in his heart. This is why when he entered the second floor or left the game, he chose to enter the second floor without hesitation, hoping that there would be another more exciting life and more meaningful things waiting for him to do. Unexpectedly, in the end, it was just to promote the progress of the game.
"That's right, and I guess that the players will complete the tasks in the game. Of course, it's okay if the players complete them, but if they are completed by NPs, the task in the plot will be really completed and the plot will develop. The system will release new tasks. When you kill NPCs, they are really killed by you in the plot, because you are not a player. Perhaps if this game has game novels, then the novel will record that one day, you killed a certain NP and the game is designed to be a monster and NPC that cannot coexist, because after meeting, it will cause a fight, which will promote the development of the plot, thus creating a continuous task chain." Zhao Beifeng continued to talk freely, immersed in his genius's emotions and could not extricate himself, and did not notice Yi Xuan's little loss at all.
Yi Xuan is a person who has experienced it. Although he was confused for a while, he quickly returned to normal. Some of them had no time to think about it. It was the right way to take care of what was happening now: "What you said is true, but I just said something casually and the God of Shadows became true. I felt a little unreal. Then wouldn't we become the Creator? Whatever we say is what we say."
"Of course, this incident did not come true just by saying it casually, but when you tell the player about this incident, it caused a stir among the players. Perhaps because the impact of this incident was too great, the operator of the game joined such a plot. Otherwise, if the player felt unhappy, it would likely affect the game's revenue.
Of course, these are just my guesses, and you still need to go back and experiment slowly to get the real results. However, I think it should be almost the same." Although Zhao Beifeng wanted to be modest, he already recognized his ideas in his heart.
Yi Xuan thought that it was, but another question appeared in his heart: "Then what I want to ask is, what are the so-called players in this game? Do they act very similar to humans in reality? But I dare say that they are definitely not played by humans in reality. Otherwise, if so many players, it would be impossible for them to be exposed at all in reality. Also, who is the runner-up of this game? Who made this game? Is the technology of this game completely beyond our imagination? Have you guessed all these?
Zhao Beifeng shook his head, "According to the current information, I can only say that I don't know about this matter. However, I have a few guesses."
"Hurry, let's listen." Yi Xuan has always been very interested in the story behind the game hall, and has suffered from no clue.
"The first possibility is that this game should be made by aliens, and these game players are actually played by aliens."
"Alien?" Yi Xuan was quite dissatisfied. He never agreed with the practice of pushing many things that cannot be explained by science directly onto aliens. If there is really such powerful technology, why don't you show up and always do such sneaky things behind your back. So he immediately frowned and said, "But they look like humans, how could they be aliens?"
"These players are just projections in the game. Who knows what they really look like? Besides, maybe aliens look the same as humans, maybe the intelligent creatures in the entire universe look the same or similar. And, isn't there such a rumor? Humans are not local creatures on the earth, but are from alien planets to the earth."
Yi Xuan curled his lips. He knew that what Zhao Beifeng said was indeed reasonable. He regretted it when he asked just now. The characters in this game, the shape of the map, the texture and the texture are all determined by the system. Since he could make Yi Xuan wear medieval clothes, why can't he change the image of the player? But he still didn't want to count the number of people, and waved his hand and said, "Even if it's over, what's the second possibility?"
Zhao Beifeng was unwilling to get into trouble with Yi Xuan more, and said with a smile: "The second possibility is that these players are all made by computers and do not really exist. In fact, just like NPCs, they are all virtual. But in this game, they are playing players."
"You mean we are players? But we play NPs." This speculation is even more incredible, making Yi Xuan's head unable to turn around for a moment: "But why is this for? What is the purpose of doing this?"
Zhao Beifeng shook his head, "You won't know what the truth is until the end of this kind of thing. Things you think are meaningless may be very necessary for the other party."
Yi Xuan nodded. It was indeed not until the final truth was revealed. All of this could only be called conjectures. "Is there any?"
"What?"
"Are there any other guesses? You just said how many of them are." Yi Xuan asked with anticipation.
Zhao Beifeng seemed a little embarrassed, frowned, and said, "There is a third one, but this third one," Zhao Beifeng shook his head, "It should be impossible."
Zhao Beifeng's appearance made Yi Xuan curious and asked hurriedly: "What is impossible?" Zhao Beifeng refused to say it, and shook his head again, "Anyway, that guess is unlikely to be true. Because the possibility is too low, it is better not to say it out. Let's focus on discussing these two possibilities."
Yi Xuan nodded. Although it was a bit strange, since Zhao Beifeng didn't want to say it, there should be a reason, so don't ask. The most important thing is that Zhao Beifeng is very serious and can't ask what he doesn't want to say.
Then the first possibility is that the game is made by aliens. Apart from the question that he mentioned earlier, Yi Xuan felt that the cultural background in this game was a bit unreasonable. If it was an alien game, shouldn't it be used to use the cultural background of aliens? Why is the culture in this game obviously very similar to the culture of humans in reality, and they all imitate holy light, and they are simply carved out in the same mold as magic games like World of Warcraft. It is impossible for aliens and Earthlings to have the same culture.
Zhao Beifeng nodded, "This is indeed a doubt, but it is not ruled out that aliens completely simulate the environment of the earth, or refer to games on the earth. Since they can all open a game hall on the earth, it is naturally not surprising that they can make a simulation game, so this point can only be regarded as a doubt first.
"So, let's discuss the second question. The players we meet in this game are actually virtual characters controlled by computers. They play the role of the player. What might you think?"
Yi Xuan nodded and shook his head again, "It's still the old question just now. If they were virtual characters and we were players, why did they do this? Why did the maker of this game do this? I can't understand this."
Zhao Beifeng said, "I think it may be because of some reason we don't know. If these players are virtual characters, then the core of this game is obviously still us trialists. However, the identities of these people have been designed in the cross-dressing process. They seem to be monsters in the game, but in fact we are still players. The design of this game is a bit weird and designed in the opposite way, in order to pursue an alternative game experience. After all, in reality, some people may feel tired of playing the hero who saves the world, so they wake up to play the NPE and monsters, and we are the testers of this game. In this way, the words make sense."
Yi Xuan nodded reluctantly. Although he was very confident in Zhao Beifeng's IQ, at the beginning, his inferences about their promotion of the game plot were also perfect. However, it seems that they still know too little information about the game makers and why they create games. Everything is based on guesses, which inevitably makes people feel that many things cannot be explained.
Zhao Beifeng seemed not very satisfied with his inference and said helplessly: "The information known now can only make guesses. If you want to know the most real situation, you must obtain more information. This is why I need you."
Just as he was talking here, a harsh alarm suddenly sounded around him. Yi Xuan was startled by the sudden sound, but Zhao Beifeng just smiled helplessly. He was already used to it after repeated this several times a day.
Zhao Beifeng waved his hand and a crystal ball suddenly appeared in his hand. Zhao Beifeng casts spells slightly at the crystal ball, and some images are immediately displayed inside. Yi Xuan curiously leans over and takes a closer look and finds that the situation looks very familiar. A team of players walked carefully in an uneven channel. Isn’t this what he had just experienced? It seems that the crystal ball seems to be something like a monitor. So another player team killed in.
Sure enough, Zhao Beifeng looked at the situation inside the crystal ball, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth: "It seems that we have guests to entertain, so I'll deal with them first."
